Met up with Ross and Greg today at the museum to deliver Fiona, not the greatest of weather to drop a boat off for a museum display especially with a road dug up for about 2km! Here's a sneak peak of the display. Well done to Ross for co-ordinating it all!

Al

We have been talking with them about such a day. As there is a room available for us to use, I was thinking of a general meeting to be held on the day as well.

Great display ladies, can't wait to check it out in person. I'll keep my eye on this spot for the "meeting" date...

Top job Ross and the boat owners!!!

Well, it seems the boats have made a bit of a splash, with some good feedback to the museum from people who have had a look and people who have heard about it and contacted the museum about coming and having a look. Both individuals and groups alike.

Seems the media are on to it as well, with both the local newspaper and TV doing stories. Can't find any TV vids, but the newspaper (Shepparton News, June 5th) article is below.

Its been 1 1/2 weeks since the boats went in to the museum, now with a heap more space and I haven't even cleaned up the mess let alone start some thing else. 3 months will go fast if I don't do some thing soon,
I no its cold out in the shed but, I will get a heater of some sort to make is easier .
Any one else taking advantage of the space you now have ?

Well I am actually babysitting the old mans HG Premier while he builds our new kitchen so hopefully he is making use of the extra space and gets it finished before Fiona returns otherwise one of my cars will be relegated outside.

After Fathers day, we need to start to dismantle the display to make way for a new display at the Museum.
Owners with boats on display there. need to make arrangements with the staff at the museum to help with the making way for floor space in time for there next display.
